Solunar tables and bass activity?
I havent got much into it before..........but I was in fishing club the other day and my teacher was telling us that he lives by it............he got pretty deep into it I dont have the time or memory right now to restate what he said but he sounded pretty sincere...........I havent really took notice.....but Im going to more often................Heres my therory on bassmaster magazine tables..........ok im a young angler and im still wet behind the ears......but here is my theory...........I see it like this....I understand that they base it on the moon phase and distance and what not.............and they say some days will be the best of the month and others will be horrible......but heres how I see it.......for example you cant just say "O look thursdays supposed to be the best day of the month lets go fish".......You have to take into consideration the weather...............It could be posted as the best day of the month but if a huge cold front were to have came in the day before it would totally throw off the fishing......and when they say "o its gonna be the worst day of the month"...........you cant allways go by that either..........say theres a cold front on its way and the fish become more active in that period before the front comes.........you cant just look at the chart and plan your trip...........take in consideration the weather around you............once agian this is just a theory I havent really tested but seems to make sence to me..........and please correct me if im wrong I wanna learn thats why im here and I wana see your guys thoughts on this..........................sorry for the spelling and bad gramar I had to rush threw this....I got Exams tomorow Thanks, O.C

Tobacco/Wine
Anyone ever grow their own tobacco or wine..........in jan/feb im going to be planting tobacco seed..........and just last week me and my friend where at lunch and we had a bunch of grapes we didnt want and I made a joke about we should put them in or gatorade bottle and let them sit to make alcohol............so we did not thinking much of it........its only been 5 days and he came over to my house......and he went to open the bottle and the cap shot to the ruff....we looked inside and the grapes had split in half and were kinda white inside.............he drank about half the juice out of the bottle and within 5 minutes he said he had a buzz equal to about 5 beers.................we did this out of a joke not really expecting results ...................but shocked we were..........i had no idea thats all it would take.....so we are gonna look into doing it agina but this time we are trying to do a little research so we can have a little better stuff...........just seeing if anyone els eis into this kinda thing?

Creepy Outing On The Lake Today
Ive had a couple wierd times also.............I usually fish the kissimmee river but one day desided to go out on okeechobee for my first time.......got about 1 mile out and was fishing in some tall grass and my buddy got his line stuck in the trolling motor...so i had to mess around with that for about 5 minute and when I looked up I was like "O no.......witch way back......." it all looked the same........luckly I saw this water tower just barley and knew that it was somewhere around the river so that lead me back...if it wasnt for that I would of been out there for awhile........................and then another time I was at a local lake and I wasgetting ready to put it in and I was watching the guy that had just launched out go up the river......I thne put my boat in and went the same way....I fish all the way to the end of that river and never once saw him.....and theres almost no way I could have missed him and theres also no boat ramps on that river...it was pretty creepy :-?
